Little Caesars has opened a location at Pearl Harbor in partnership with the the Navy Exchange Service Command. The unit is located in one of the busiest Navy Exchange Malls globally, according to a press release.

"Non-traditional expansion has been a special focus for Little Caesars this year, especially military bases and towns we've identified being short in supply of QSRs that meet the preferences of today's consumers," Bryan Ketelhut, national director of non-traditional and development services at Little Caesars, said in the release. "This is also a special territory as Little Caesars has prioritized supporting the brave men and women who serve our country since the brand debuted 65 years ago. As we gather to celebrate the grand opening at Pearl Harbor, we're honored to be a part of this tight-knit community."

John Brown, a former NEXCOM employee, is leading operations for the Little Caesars location. Brown has been in the pizza industry since 1987 and with Little Caesars starting in 2019.

"Little Caesars addition to the Navy Exchange Mall brings substantial value to our food court and to those who frequent here," Brown said in the release. "Having been on the island for so many years and working closely with NEXCOM, I'm confident Little Caesars will become a staple for many."

Little Caesars was founded in 1959 and has restaurants in each of the 50 U.S. states and 29 countries and territories.
